Hello Ryan, to leap is a verb like to jump but instead of jumping UP you would jump up and forward. Ballet dancers leap. Kids jump up and down in excitement. Seap is like leak. To seap, usually is to have something wet leak through onto something dry. An example is something that may happen slowly. The wet bathingsuit seaped onto the carseat making it wet. I hope that helps. Good luck.

Hi Ryan, We use "leak" when there is an unwanted and slow loss of liquid from a container. Example: There is a leak in your car radiator. You have to get it fixed soon. We also use "leak" to indicate a unintended disclosure of information. Example: The leak of top secret information from government files set off a flurry. When we have an unwanted substance (usually liquid) that gets into a place, we say that it "seeps" into that place. Example: Water was seeping into the basement as the construction was shoddy. Hope this helps. Cheers, Lance
